Update on Lance's severe back pain, Lafayette, LA?

I asked a question over the Thanksgiving holidays about my husband Lance's severe back pain. He took an MRI and he's got a bulging disk in between his C6 and C7 spine. It's so severe that it's making his arm go dead. It's slowly paralyzing his arm. He can still use it but it's really getting worse with every day. He spoke with the office of Dr. Stephen Goldware in Lafayette, LA but they can't see him for a consultation until Jan. 10, 2008. We don't know what else to do. Even pain management can't see him until Dec.13, 2007. If anyone has any kind of "pull" please do something or talk to someone and let me know. I can't bear to continue watching him wither away. I love my husband and want to do all that I can. Thanks. May God bless you all.
